Back in the 90's I use to see a ton of fake SS, z/28, ect badges on classic Chevys like Camaro's, Chevelle's, Nova's, etc. even the other manufacturers. Even today it seems to be all the rage to put fake badges on these clones/ tributes that go to Barrett Jackson and such. Its been going on FOREVER and doesn't bother me.

I never did it to my 67 Camaro since I was lucky to have it completely de-badged by the previous owner, but if I ever get around to putting a big block into my 72 Monte Carlo I might entertain the idea of putting the factory SS454 badges on the lower rocker and trunk moldings to set it apart for all the small block car's and let people know that this Monte is packing heat. I have my heart set on the fuel injected Edelbrock/ Mussi 555 so it may take a while, but it would be cool if made custom SS555 badges that look like stock.
